Chen Song didn't care too much about the three tourists who came to visit this time, he handed over the reception to Angelina, and he concentrated on cleaning up the pasture and plantation, and he also had to help the town prepare for the Spring Festival.

Chen Daren and Luo Qiulian are not boring, the two of them decorate the manor, the manor area is so large, there are so many houses, it is not easy to fill the entire manor with the flavor of the previous year.

Gradually, the town began to change.

First of all, red lanterns were hung on the streets of the town, some of the red lanterns were pasted with the word Fu, some were pasted with the word Xi, and then I don't know where Shabi got the red lantern from a memorial sticker, Chen Song almost sat on the ground in fright after seeing it.

Secondly, the doors and windows of the shops in the town have window grilles, and shopkeepers like Kerui and other shopkeepers who like Chinese elements have also invited the Buddha in the store, some of the pictures are of the Bodhisattva, some of the pictures are of the Buddha, some of the pictures are of the God of Literature and Wealth or the God of Martial Wealth, and some of the pictures are of the Nine Uncles holding a peachwood sword......

The town square is the most festive venue for the upcoming Spring Festival, and the fat mayor presided over the construction of a traditional Chinese-style seven-story building, on which Hanshan Temple is written!

Chen Song was stunned when he saw this seven-story building, and later he found out that it was an inflatable plastic building, no wonder it could be built overnight.

The sea side was windy, and a gust of sea breeze blew through Hanshan Temple and swayed, Chen Song was quite puzzled, he asked the fat mayor: "Why did you get such a thing? Do you know what kind of building this is? This is not the Forbidden City." ”

The fat mayor looked regretful: "Actually, my first choice is the Forbidden City, but it was too sought-after and was bought by Denmark's Chinatown." Oh, it's a product of the Nordic New Chinese Elements Company, how about it, it's great, isn't it?"

Chen Song smiled bitterly: "It's really great, but what are you buying this for?"

The fat mayor pointed to the chimes and said, "To use them together." ”

Chen Song patted his forehead and said, "Do you know what words are written on this?"

"The name of a temple, the name of this temple is very nice and beautiful, isn't it?" asked Mayor Fat.

Chen Song said: "Yes, it is called Hanshan Temple, which is related to a poem in our traditional culture, and that poem is also very beautiful and beautiful." ”

The fat mayor slapped his fat hand and said: "That's right, it's the name you said, Hanshan Temple, every year during the Chinese New Year, this temple will ring the big bell and ring one hundred and eight times." ”

Chen Song remembered that he had said this before, and he asked, "Who said this?"

The fat mayor said: "I asked someone to contact a professor of folklore at your National Capital University, and he said that your earliest Chinese New Year's Eve bell was made from this temple, and now the temple has cast a new bronze bell, one hundred and eight tons, eight meters and six high, with Buddhist scriptures engraved on it, which is the world's largest Buddhist bell recognized by the Guinness Book of Records." ”

Chen Song scratched his head anxiously, how could he not know?

He felt that the fat mayor had been fooled, so he took out his mobile phone and inquired.

As a result, he found out that he was lonely and unheard, and China does have the custom of ringing the bronze bell on Chinese New Year's Eve, but it is not a tradition since ancient times, but a custom that has emerged in recent years.

This custom is a foreign product, originated in 1979, when China and Japan formally established diplomatic relations not long ago, and Hanshan Temple is quite a good thing in Dongying. Influential ancient Chinese temples, so a Dongying Buddhist who visited Hanshan Temple suggested to the government, saying why not transplant the custom of Dongying's New Year's bell ringing to Hanshan Temple?

The government adopted this suggestion, and the Chinese New Year's Eve bell became a repertoire of Hanshan Temple, and temples across the country followed Hanshan Temple's lead and began to ring the bell on Chinese New Year's Eve to welcome the New Year.

If you don't search on the Internet, Chen Song doesn't know this allusion, after all, he is not a monk.

Iceland is a small country with a small population, and in the winter there is a severe lack of recreational activities for the people, in fact, because the nights are too long, and there is no local news to cover in the media.

The Spring Festival activities held by Liuying Town attracted the media, at least created a lot of topics for them.

Since the 29th of the lunar month, as the Spring Festival deployment of the town is nearing completion, more and more media have rushed to the town to report, and at the same time, overseas Chinese in Iceland have also dragged their families to come.

In the past two days, the name and photos of Liuying Town have frequently appeared on TV and newspapers, and in the past, this situation was often accompanied by the death of someone, and the TV station would only mention Liuying Town when the TV station released an obituary.

Now it's different, the Chinese New Year event in Liuying Town has become the hottest event in Iceland in the coming days.

The Chinese were happy to use this to increase their racial influence, and they came to the town one after another, and Chen Song's manor suddenly began to receive a large number of customers, and the rooms were full all at once!

In this way, Chen Song was stunned, he didn't plan to receive tourists seriously at all, so there were no full-time service staff in the manor, Xiao Ke and Angelina were both halfway monks!

There are not many hotels in the town, and because of the arrival of tourists, every family has become busy, and no one can support him.

On the morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the situation became more and more serious, Chen Song was worried about how to deal with the garbage, and Rhine hurriedly ran over: "Another car is driving to the door, boss, business is booming." ”

Chen Song was annoyed: "Made, why are you running to our side?"

Rhine was surprised: "Are you not happy to make money?"

Chen Song said angrily: "You also know that you are happy when you have money to make, but do I have money to earn?"

He offers high prices to domestic tourists, because he has to take care of meals, borrow cars, provide tour guides and even arrange activities, and domestic tourists are willing to accept such prices.

However, his offer to his Icelandic compatriots could not be so high, firstly, the family did not eat at the manor, but came to stay; secondly, everyone was from a club, even if Chen Song and some of them did not know each other, but they all had mutual friends, so Chen Song could not ask for a high price, otherwise he would have a bad reputation.

Chen Daren and Luo Qiulian didn't know this, they saw that their son's business was better and happier, so they were surprised when they found that Chen Song was not in high spirits and asked him what was going on.

Chen Song had no choice but to explain in a down-to-earth manner: "Although there are many people, they don't make much money. ”

Chen Daren said: "Then you just raise the house price, so that you can make money?"

Chen Song shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not about money in essence, because I don't like money. ”

Chen Daren smiled, he touched his son's head and said, "Why are you so good at opening your eyes and talking nonsense?"

Chen Song couldn't explain, so he changed his reason again: "Alas, the main thing is that I don't have enough waiters to use, you see I can't take care of it here." ”

Chen Daren rolled up his sleeves and said, "This is simple, your mother and I just have nothing to do, and the two of us will go to work as waiters." ”

"Yes, I think we are all Chinese, so we don't have communication barriers, so we should find something to do." Luo Qiulian helped.
